    Edward ARE there any significant bugs in Vegas that you are aware of? Great public service here if you could list them.

    No software of any significance is “bug free” but I don’t know of any major issues with Vegas. Some people have issues with certain tasks/features that others are using without issue. Many issues seem to be related to wide variety of hardware/software combinations Vegas is being run on.

    Well it’s just GREAT you are available, you are a lifesaver. SONY should cut you a big CHECK Because they take a MINIMUM of 4 days to respond to ANY email tech support question – if they respond at ALL! My question to them about scrambled files on the timeline so far, HAS NOT been responded to. Thank you, thank you, thank you for being available.

    I have been doing small work with Vegas 7 without any issues. I want to learn the program better befre I dive into anything big. I am still kinda new to all of this.

    One thing I have noticed, and this has been a known issue with other on other forums, is the HD captruing in Vegas 8 Pro. It cuased much frustrations with me, because I am a SD video freindly guy, and I just bought a Canon HV 30 HD camcorder.

    After using Vegas 8 to capture the HD video from my camera vias firewire, the mt2 HD file did not appear in the Vegas explorer window; even after refreshing it. and when I went to drag and drop it from Windows explorer window into Vegas 8, it read “None of the files dropped in Vegas could be opened.”

    When going back to Vegas 7, everytihng worked fine…

    This appears to be a major issue if you working with Vegas 8 Pro and doing HD video. I have the latest 8.0b updates and everything. Still having the issue.

    I use a Sony HVR-A1 HDV with Vegas 8 with no problems. Can the m2t files play on VLC? Thats a free video player that will play m2t files very well. Try capturing with 7 and importing into 8. this has me curious.
    https://www.videolan.org/vlc/ is the link for the free m2t player. Danny

    I have the VLC program, and it will play the mt2 files that Vegas 8 captures just fine. Vegas 7 plays the Vegas 7 and 8 m2t captures fine, but Vegas 8 won’t play any m2t files that 7 or 8 captures.

    I was on the HV20/30 forum, and others were having the same issue….

    I would try an m2t file captured by a different camera with Vegas 8 to see if it’s the camera. Another option is to convert them to Cineform avi with 7. This format works better than m2t in that they can be rendered multiple times without much quality loss. Vegas comes with this Cineform codec.
